amazing and ethical responsible experience
I had an amazing experience with Suricata safaris. Great and competent briefing before and after the Safari. A great, friendly and relaxed atmosphere during the Safari. The guides are super competent and friendly and you feel they love their job. Ethically responsible behavior especially when dealing with and around animals.

4 day safari, lodge accommodation
Incredible experience! Very professional services, went out of their way to make arriving and departing as easy as possible and that we were getting what we wanted from the experience. Mandela was an amazing guide and very knowledgable about all sorts of animals. Our chef Acton made the most delicious food, there wasn't a moment on the trip we felt at all hungry. We chose the lodge/safari tent option and the accommodation was simply a delight, the staff offering to move our table outside so we could have breakfast while watching the sunrise over the Serengeti is an experience I will never forget. Overall an unmissable experience when travelling to Tanzania and I would recommend this company to ensure you have the best experience.

Friendly unforgettable experience
Had the best 4-day safari experience with Suricata Safaris. Mandela made sure the experience was unforgettable and can’t thank him enough for everything. So knowledgeable about all the wildlife and a joy to chat with. The food provided was great and we were never left hungry. The accommodation provided and staff at the accommodation exceeded expectations and were exactly what we needed after a long day of safari. Asante sana to the whole Suricata team for an unforgettable experience!!

Unforgettable experience with the best crew
After reviewing and contacting some tour agencies, me and my husband decided to go with the Suricata team. They were super responsive since the beginning, available to answer any of our questions and to help, either by email or WhatsApp. And their TripAdvisor scores and amazing reviews helped with the decision.
When we arrived at Kilimanjaro airport, our transfer was waiting for us. Mr.T was super nice and took us to our hotel in Arusha for the night. He gave us our itinerary very professionally.
On the next morning Mandela came to pick us up. And barely did we know the amazing adventure that was waiting for us.
We picked up the rest of the group and started our way to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We picked our chef Saleem on the way there.
The safari experience surpassed our expectations, all due to the professionalism, kindness, knowledge and respect that Mandela and Saleem show for the community, nature and clients.
We got to see more than 40 species from close (and always safe) distance. Mandela was always super knowledgeable of the animals, curiosities and really taught us a lot in 3 glorious days. He mostly taught us how animals live in equilibrium and respect. And showed us how the amazing safari community in Tanzania does the same.
And Saleem! Having warm and fresh cooked food both for lunch and dinner made all the difference. And we got to try typical dishes from Tanzania, made with love.
In the end, we just didn’t want to say goodbye to this amazing individuals.
And thank you also to Ali, who welcomed us in the end of the tour back to Arusha. We really felt appreciated.
We promised, as a group, to come back. And We don’t have any doubts of the team we want with us. Highly recommend Suricata Safaris. Thank you once again for an unforgettable experience. We left feeling part of the family!

Surpassed expectations. Now I know why Suricata is number 1
This experience exceeded my expectation, starting from the punctuality, until the professionalism and warm welcoming all Suricata team members treated me. Special note to Mandela and Saleem that turned into friends by the end of the experience. They are highly knowledgeable about the all experience , since history of all zones we were, biology, gastronomy , weather conditions. We easily were able to detect more than 40 species which Mandela told all the correct names of them and always with special facts. The gastronomy made by chef Salem was simple wonderful experience to try really tasteful Tanzanian food always freshly made and make everyone of the group delight. There was not a single meal that I didn’t like. By the end this experience which was me and my wife and 4 strangers ,turned them into really good friends and made a promise to come back and do this exactly experience in 10 years. I highly recomend this deal with Suricata, the customer will get satisfied 100%.

Experience of a lifetime
I had an amazing safari, from beginning to end everything was organized perfectly. The pickup at the airport, the first night at the hotel, all organized without a hitch. The safari itself blew all my expectations out of the water. We saw so many animals, our driver always seemed to know where to go looking for them. On top of that we were lucky enough to see a cheetah, leopard and a pride of lions hunting.

We had a very pleasant safari with Rockie our guide and Tito our cook.
Suricata looked after us from start to finish of our stay.
Thanks to Rockie we saw a multitude of magnificent animals making our stay unforgettable.
A plus for Rockie who speaks French very well.
We warmly recommend this agency for your safari in Tanzania.

It was excellent, everything was very well organised.
The 5 day safari zour with Suricata was amazing. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend booking this tour with Suricata safari. It was very well organised, great value for money and we felt safe the whole trip. The communication before the trip was really good as well. Our guide Ezekiel was really great, he is super nice and showed us all the animals and is very experienced and answered my many questions during the trip :) we saw the big 5 and many more! We had a great cook with us, Ben, who provided excellent food! We were super happy about that. The pick up from and to thr airport worked out great as well, Mr T was very nice and welcomed us at the airport even though we were quite delayed. I would definitely book the tour again and can highly recommend it

Absolutely recommend
Day before the tour representative from Suricate Safari went to us, and we were explained about upcoming trip.
Next day morning the safari Toyota land cruiser took us from hotel. All safari days was absolutely amazing. We saw Big 5, and much more animals, birds, landscapes. Also there were included personal chief Benjuda, and his food was very delicious. Our tour guide Ezekiel took us in incredible safari game. The team even prepared unexpected surprise for my birthday. Absolutely recommend him as your guide. In every camp place was the hot shower, and good prepared tents. After the trip they took us to our hotel and arranged transfer to airport.
